inej + this evasion scene

[knifeathers-archive]

In a manner of speaking, she supposes he is right. She is certainly not here by choice. Taken, no, stolen, from her family's caravan just to wind up here fighting for her breath and right to her own body.

She straightens up her posture. Her face turning from soft to steel, a slight grit to her teeth. "You're the one that seems more the foreigner to here than me. Answer mine and I'll answer yours."

HE TAKES her hand with a lopsided grin , giving it a firm shake before sliding his hand from hers .

❝ inej , ❞ he repeats then raises his eyebrow at her and tilts his head . ❝ does anything bring someone to the barrel ? don't we all END UP here , generally against our will . ❞ then he shrugs . ❝ i live here . isn't that enough ? what about you . why are you here , inej ? ❞

A name? Peculiar. A trusting soul, those are just as rare. Glib and trusting, interesting.

The Wraith adjusts her posture and holds herself straight. "Inej." She moves forward and extends a hand, "It is a pleasure to meet you, Nikolai. I hope I don't come to regret that pleasure in the future." "What brings you to the Barrel?"

❝ BEST START climbing then , hm ? ❞ it's glib but there's something hungry that flashes in his hazel eyes .

a grin flicks up the corner of his mouth . ❝ you can call me nikolai . and you , stranger ? ❞

I'm Grisha. She's stunned by his words. It's not safe to be a Grisha in Ketterdam, not one without a contract of some sort. Inej specifically recalls the lengths of what Nina must put up with to keep herself free from capture, but ... maybe Nina can help. A Grisha's perspective of Ketterdam must be different despite all that Inej knows about the comings and goings of the island city. "We will make it work. I'm not giving them back to you." Inej's head tilts ever so slightly to one side. "Why would I be mad? The only anger I have is for the people who took you away from me."

“Then he’s just like any other slave holder. They raise the price until you can’t afford it anymore. Dangle your freedom just outside of reach.” Not unlike Heleen. Not unlike any other. They’re not special, not one of them. They buy people under the guise of indenture like they owe someone something for taking them from their families. “I know how to handle people like that. Ketterdam is home to all kinds of people. It’s own rules, it’s own laws. You’ll learn quickly. Sometimes a good bluff is all you need to strike a deal and others,” Inej opens up her jacket and reveals the daggers gathered around her abdomen, “You need a show of force.”

“I’m Grisha,” Harij says, meeting his sister’s gaze. “That’s why he’ll never let me go. It’s why I had to run and not wait around to try and buy my way out of my indenture.” His gaze moves to the daggers, and he nods his head a little bit. “Okay. We can try. But I’m not letting you go on your own. I don’t want to be separated from you again.” He falls silent for a moment. “Are you mad?”

A brow raises at the man's insinuation. No one has anything in the Barrel except for power, and even that can be lost. "You are presumptuous, sir," she counters. "No one has anything in the barrel except for those at the very top." She looks down at her assailant. "And even that can be stripped away."

She exhales a breath in a sigh, straightening out her clothes with a sharp tug. "Thank you for helping me, whomever it is that you are."

❝ SO QUICK to strip me of my chivalrous title ? i'm wounded . titles are all a person has in the barrel . ❞ he wonders , then , what her titles might be . the truth can be a dangerous thing , especially in nikolai's hands . he intends to wind it out eventually . ❝ frankly , i hadn't decided initially . i just hate to see a pretty girl beset by an ogerous beast of a man . you're welcome for that , by the way . ❞
